Would this beast work as a hackintosh once NVIDIA Pascal drivers are available for macOS?

Intel Core i7-6700 quadcore, NVIDIA GTX 1080 8GB, M.2 & SATA-3, 2 RAM slots… all packed into a silent (watercooled) compact black box (22. 5 × 20.3 × 12.8 cm). What a monster!

I know the NVIDIA 1080 is not compatible yet. But is the rest of the hardware compatible? Especially would sound, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, SD card reader work under macOS…?

I suspect the hardware would be compatible with macOS - it has Realtek LAN and audio. But at this point I wouldn't count on Nvidia ever releasing Pascal drivers for macOS - I believe they would have done it already if they were planning to. That's only my opinion.
 
Hi. I'm going to get my hands on the 1060 version, so i'll try make a hackintosh boot drive just to test! Îll tell you, and i may need help!
 
Bump, has anyone tried installing OS X on this?
 
Friendly bump.
 
And another bump... I have seen these go for 1-1,5k used over here in Germany.
 
i successfully installed it on magnus en1060 and my brother on en1070k, we just changed the wifi bt card to dell dw1803
